Joe McPhee - Solos: The Lost Tapes (1980-1981-1984)

Pressung Original Bemerkungen

Material from Joe McPhee's personal archives that shines new light on the legendary multi-instrumentalist's work from the early 1980s. "Wind Cycles," for tenor saxophone, explores the permutations of breath on reed and brass, from quiet whispers to full-throated cries and back again. With "The Redwood Rag," McPhee takes a jaunty melody and gives it a swinging workout with Steve Lacy-like precision. The free-blowing alto excursion "Ice Blu," is in McPhee's words, "a sound which evokes an image, which asks a question 'What is that?' and the answer is, a sound which evokes an image which asks a question." "Voices," one of his signature compositions, gets a particularly haunting treatment here on soprano with the incorporations of mesmerizing electronics. Includes a download coupon for the full album plus a bonus interview, conducted at the New Music America Festival in 1981.
